I see these two IPv4 networks
10.250.251.242/22 brd 10.250.251.255
10.50.235.12/24 brd 10.50.235.255Assuming you want to reach 10.50.235.200 for DNS, do you have that address setup as a DNS server?
Also, if you have multiple DNS server setup, it will use the first one until it fails, then it will failover to #2 in the list, etc. so you can't simply list multiple DNS server and expect them all to be used.
Can you ping the IP of the client you want to connect to by IP?
DNS server is at 10.50.235.235
Yes, I can ping the DNS Server and the clients on the 10.50 network by IP address but not by name.
If I disable the 10.250 network, then I can ping & reach the clients by name.What is your machine set to use for DNS server right now?

It gets it's DNS settings from the DHCP server.
10.250.250.254

10.250.250.254
10.50.235.235Does 250.254 have 235.235 in its upstream list or have a secondary zone for 235.x?

No, 250.254 doesn't have a DNS server, just services provided by the dhcp router.

I am confused. Either way, does the DNS server in the subnet where your DNS service is working have the DNS server for the non functioning subnet in its upstream list or a secondary zone for that subnet?

250.254 is my Meraki router (so no "standalone" DNS server)
Not sure if I can add a secondary zone -

Configure your computer to look to 235.235 for DNS... and configure the DNS server at 235.235 to forward anything it doesn't recognize along to your Meraki?

Unfortunately, no MX, I got rid of my MX84.
DHCP is handled by Meraki MS320-24 Layer 3 switch -
Why are you discussing DNS? Routing has nothing to do with DNS. DNS is for resolving names.

Because I want to access the resources via name resolution (you gotta read my OP)

Looks like the MS series supports the DHCP relay setting: https://community.meraki.com/t5/Switching/need-to-configure-DHCP-IP-helper-address-on-VLAN-in-MS-switch/td-p/22806.

I can't use that relay setting since I still need dhcp on the 250.254 network

If you're using some automation you could push the resolution for specific targets to the hosts file on the end points.

I added 235.235 as an additional DNS in the 250.254 network.
I tried this yesterday but silly me forgot to "refresh" the NIC so it could grab the new settings.
All is good & working.
